🥀BLACK ROSE INSURGENCE🥀 (SONIC OC LORE)
"For Mobians, for Freedom"
Organization Stats:
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral;
Location: Various bases across Mobius (Prime Zone, Moebius, Sol Dimension, etc);
Principles: Anarchism, Anti-Authority, Mutualism;
Leadership: ████████
Known members: Ursula, Bjorn, Brienne, Kashima, May-Day, Marina, Jack, Zofia, Clarice, Malika, Lakeesha, Eshe (BRI Squat n⁰ 224);
Allies: Temporary associations with other groups
Enemies: Eggman Empire and the Egg Bosses, Dark Legion, Battle Bird Armada, Eggman N., Ixis Naugus, Kingdom of Acorn, Mammoth Mogul, King Maxx, Suppression Squad, Zone Cops (Warden Zobotnik and Zonic)
History: The Black Rose Insurgence (BRI) is a multidimensional organization whose goal is to unite all zones and dimensions, without fears of being dominated by an evil force, and without barriers/frontiers. They want to empower all mobians, and make them strong enough to fight against any threat (e.g: Eggman Empire).
The BRI has hideouts and members located in various locations and zones. However, it's really difficult for the members to meet in person, since the organization has no access to teleportation technology nor Warp Rings, so members need to plan their meetings really carefully (crossing the Cosmic Interstate is quite a challenge).
The BRI doesn't see Sonic/Freedom Fighters/Resistance as enemies, but they don't (and won't) rely on these groups to reach their goal. Both the BRI and Sonic have distinct objectives, but they often cross paths.
Operational Tactics: the minds behind the BRI prefer to remain anonymous, but most of the members wear their symbol on the back of their suits/jackets. The BRI has a principle of acting in the shadows, by using hacking and espionage techniques to not only trespass the Cosmic Interstate silently, but also to study their enemies' weak spots and know when and how to defend themselves against them.
Organization Principles: the BRI's policy to function is based on mutual trust by all the members and therefore, doesn't require any specific rules, and the members are quite free to live their everyday lives (there's no "loyalty oath", you just have to have common sense).
BRI Squats: Squats are small hidden settlements/HQs oxcupied by members of the BRI. They can be any type of structure (abandoned buildings, hostels, self-made headquarters, etc). Because BRI's main form of communication is by encrypted online devices, these squats receive a random number/code (it doesn't necessarily follow a numeric order).
BRI Squad n⁰ 224: under Ursula’s responsibility, this squat is hidden somewhere in the Prime Zone. After escaping Zone Jail (during the events of "Scourge Lockdown"), Ursula, alongside Bjorn and Brienne, decided to go to the Prime Zone and settle the Squat next to their friends/acquaintaces.

first things first: ae love how you can tell the backrooms wiki is a community effort. ae haven't even looked at any of the level descriptions yet, just the names, yet you can tell a lot of different folks have contributed to the list
second thing: you can't throw a level called 'ad astra' at us and expect us not to do anything with it
#nervous about doing a fic because of how much some folks hate the fanmade levels#which we get. we don't really mind them ourselves we love all the variety#though- much like with the scp wiki- not a fan of the 'there's a big organization behind this' aspect#we prefer the 'get thrown in and figure it out yourself cause no one's coming' feel#(and. we don't like the scp foundation for personal reasons...)#but ae think a fic where the sea grunks end up in the backrooms and just. explore some levels#that sounds like it would be fun to write#and hey maybe it'd be fun to read too#like ae said we haven't looked into any of the levels at all yet so this'll all be new stuff to us#a bit of an experiment if you will. somethin borrowed somethin new

Idea for a fanmade Leitner inspired by a different post I just saw:
Leitner that's a "Where's Waldo" book (no, not "Where's Wally", its a US originated Leitner, and if you complain out loud about it not being "Where's Wally" before reading it fucking explodes your head the second you open it) where as soon as you spot Waldo in the first page, in each subsequent page he gets more and more obvious to spot as he gets closer and closer to the viewer. His usual smile starts flattening out the closer he gets until his face is dead center, taking up a majority of the page with a blank look on his face staring directly into your eyes and you know for a fact that he's looking at you and actually seeing you.
Then you start noticing Waldo in different books that are definitely not copies of "Where's Waldo". And in the background of TV shows. And Movies. And then in real life crowds. And he's always getting closer. Always with that blank, haunted stare from the last page of the original Leitner.
And then, fuck, idk, he kills you or something???
Oh no, waitwaitwait, you end up as one of the people in the crowd in the "Where's Waldo" Leitner, as Waldo gets closer to the viewer the people in the crowd around him start looking more and more openly horrified and outright distressed to the point of visibly sobbing and screaming and those are the people who've read the book before and got McLeitnered™
Idk man it's almost 1 am here, take my podcast brain worms
#tma#the magnus archives#leitners tma#leitner books#fan leitner#fanmade leitner#guess those tags havent ever been used#everyone needs to start coming up with more ideas for fucked up books for funsies cmon guys play with me in the space#an anatomy textbook that makes real organs show up when you read passages about them but theyre always fucked up somehow#a copy of Charlotte's Web where she gaslights Wilbur and you start getting messages written in spider webs in your house after you read it#a tarot deck manual where all the cards are death that makes you also die idfk man I'm spitballing here#tma podcast

I like how you went from stanning anime boys to stanning Willem Dafoe, really keeping your followers on their toes /pos
😭😭😭
I haven't abandoned my boys I promise!! My heart is so large...I contain multiple passions simultaneously...
Unexpected as it may be, getting into more live-action media and film in general has been good for me though! Many many many stories and visuals and themes I would not have encountered if I refused to go outside my usual circle. Instead of having a finite box of interests now it's like a web! It is Enriching in that sense.
(And tbh I think it's something people should do more often. Otherwise you end up trying to mold Your Thing to fit the story you want...which can be frustrating if it's simply not the story it was made to tell. But something else out there could be exactly what you want! Try something totally out of your usual medium or genre. Even if you don't like it, you've learned more about what you do like.)
Also I get to make even more bizarre edits of things catering to My tastes so that's a plus.
I love them.................
#WoopemWednesdayTuesday
#its been like a year since the last woopem wednesday hrmmm. something to ponder.#also I don't consider myself a stan of anything I try SO HARD to be normal but 😭#also I DO think there is a clear line in my anime boy faves and willem which sounds. weird but dsfj I PROMISE. I MADE THE CONNECTION!#oh yeah also the negative trade-off for going past fandom spaces means you're probably gonna fall in love#with some book or independent film or song that you will never ever have a chance to talk about organically.#like no one is ever gonna make a ship edit for it. no fanmade playlists. you suffer alone or you make it your mission to convince others.#it is very humbling sorry

TMA COMMISSIONS FOR GAZA
What is TMA Commissions For Gaza?
You can get small TMA commissions (a little drawing or short fanfic) in exchange for donating to 1 of 10 Gofundme's of Palestinians in Gaza (starting May 17th)
There are about 60 artists signed up already who have volunteered to work for free for this to happen. Until May 16th, you can join too!
The project is fanmade and has no connection to Rusty Quill
Our carrd: https://magnusforgaza.carrd.co/ Everything else under the cut ↓
How can I commission?
Here's a detailed How To Commission guide.
In a nutshell: 1: Donate to one of the 10 gofundme's. (any amount) 2: Fill out the commission form and describe what art you want! 3: And now we wait. We don't know how many commissions each artist will take on so please be patient💚
Guidelines for artists:
Here's a post with guidelines for artists and authors.
Here's the post that explains the process from sign up to sending the commission to the person who requested it.
Where does the money go?
We, the organizers and artists of TMA commissions for Gaza, gain no money from this. We ask participants to donate to 1 of these 10 Gofundme's by Gazans who are trying to survive and evacuate Gaza. 5 of these Gofundmes are on the Operation Olive Branch list and the other 5 are friends and family of one of our organizers. The funds are needed for expenses such as medical care, food and first and foremost to pay for crossing the border to Egypt.
Why only 10 Gofundme's?
We hope to be more effective when focusing on just a small number of Gofundme's and not for example the whole Operation Olive Branch list. Providing a smaller number of places to donate to may also help donators to not get overwhelmed by the amount of people who need their help. If you have any questions, send us a message here on Tumblr!

It is really interesting as someone who grew up in an intensely conservative, Christian household, how much the puritanical "I did not consent to seeing this! It shouldn't be allowed to exist!" Has moved from like. Far-right sects of religious environments. To the broad strokes of fandom, and beyond.
Their line, when I was a kid, was- "I didn't consent to seeing gay people kissing. It personally disgusts me to watch these two be intimate. I didn't CONSENT to seeing them holding hands on a public street/public chanel- so they shouldn't be allowed to exist in this space. Just in case I come into contact with it. I'm saving MYSELF this is for MY religious views. Okay?"
Now, the line is, "I didn't consent to seeing a sex scene in this movie. It personally disgusts me to watch these two be intimate. I didn't CONSENT to seeing their butts awkwardly moving- so they shouldn't be allowed to exist in this space. Just in case I come into contact with it. I'm saving MYSELF this is for MY sexuality preferences and views. Okay?"
..... I think if we do a little side by side comparison. I think we can all pick out what the issue is:
People expecting the world to be sanitized to THEIR specific sensibilities, giving no thought to how it can and will affect people who are not them.
Someone can be deeply religious, feel dirty and gross for seeing ANYONE make out. But that doesn't make it okay for them to process their feelings by making another person change themselves.
I can already see some people trying to argue that it isn't the same. We are talking about SEX here, those bigots are just nasty about sake sex relations-
Except they aren't. My grandmother would go on and on. Those exact lines- about any vaguely sexual scene in a movie. She is not ace. She is a puritan evangelical.
"It's like if I stood outside someone's window watching them have sex. That's perverted."
"It's like if someone came into your house and stripped down naked without your consent."
Her descriptions of the most bland sex scenes you've ever seen in a movie. The cut to black barely referred to type.
Her entire backing for those feelings, was her religious views, and the need to press those views and ideals into others. It speaks to a specific lack of awareness around Christian cultural influence, that a good section of asexuals are falling to the same practices. Without even realizing it!!!!
I think the problem can be worded easily: Seeing a penis, or seeing sex- will not hurt you. What can hurt you, is processing it wrong.
Accidentally Seeing sex, and having your first thought be: this shouldn't have happened, so this should not exist, because I feel uncomfortable.
.... isn't a healthy way to process this situation!
It should be: this shouldn't have happened, I should remove myself from the situation, because I feel uncomfortable.
As a person on the ace spectrum, I'm finding an increasingly disturbing tendency in these circles to viewing ourselves as somehow "better" or "above" people who have sex, enjoy sex, enjoy watching sex scenes in media, or engage positively with sex or sexual content in any way.
Perhaps it's because I'm an extremely sex positive aego, though sex averse for myself (which basically means I do often find people attractive, enjoy engaging with sexual content, have private fantasies and am happy going solo but I have absolutely zero desire to ever have sexual contact with another person) I just find the judgemental puritanism I see so much of in these spaces disturbing - a particular sentiment I see very, very often is that movies/TV shows shouldn't have sex scenes in them because we, the audience, haven't "consented" to seeing them (leaving aside the gobsmacking offensiveness in equating watching fake sex on screen with the violation of sexual assault), and that people who do enjoy them are obviously stupid for doing so.
To be clear, I'm not saying that there's something wrong with being sex repulsed or averse and not wanting to engage with such content. Where you lose me is where you decide that something that is a normal, healthy part of life for most people is something shameful and dirty that should be hidden away and not talked about, because of your personal feelings.
I shouldn't need to tell anyone how much harm such ideas have caused throughout history, especially for women and queer people.
#and yes i can go on and on for ages about clearly labeling things. but really with most movies/tv you have a dead dove situation#aka: clearly labeled bag what you see is what ur gonna get#most tv and movies will be very very clear about what it contains via parent guides#and fanmade content SHOULD be properly organized. some ppl fail to do so. but it is your job to filter thru things#and if ur entering into unknown territory.... then you can see anything. its on YOU to take responsibility for what you see and how u cope#also sorry if this is all annoying OP i just agree with what you are saying and see a lot of similarities

Phantom Rogue
DP x DC Prompt
Danny has had enough with Amity. His friends and his sister began to distance themselves from him after the whole "Dan" incident. He dropped out of school and was barely patrolling around Amity, just doing his best to avoid Vlad at all costs.
By the time he was 19, he just up and left Amity altogether, taking all of his parents' work, just to spite them for ignoring human him and chasing Ghost him.
He drifts from city to city, not really having anywhere to stay. That is until he reaches Gotham, where he encounters Tim, someone almost like him. But not the Tim Drake we all know, the Tim Drake Danny encounters is one who isn't part of the Batfam and is instead the biggest Crime Lord of Gotham.
Jason was persuaded to stay in Gotham when he found out about his biological mother. And he's happy about it, as he learned that she works for the Joker later on. Tim spent most of his teen years hoping and praying that Batman would find him and take him away from his neglectful parents. By the time Janet died, he had accepted that Batman wouldn't notice him. This led him down the dark path, where he began to gather blackmail on the other rich families of Gotham, and from there, it slowly began to expand into the criminal organization he has now.
Tim had become one of the most feared people in Gotham. The reason? His intelligence. He has developed a lot of countermeasures to prevent any evidence from being left behind or acquired to be used against him. After he inherited Drake Industries when Jack died, he used the company to develop a lot of things to counter the Rogues of Gotham and uses the tech to threaten the Rogues.
Croc works for Tim because he was promised to have a cure developed for him so he could be human again and is frequently used to fight Bane whenever he is attacking Drake Industries to acquire anything to help his Venom improve. Tim was so close to killing the Joker, but the newest Robin, Damian Wayne, stopped him. This is what causes the Joker to fear Tim Drake. Oswald doesn't have enough money to ruin Tim and almost lost the Iceberg Lounge to Tim. He got to keep it after he proposed to work with Tim. The Court of Owls can't do anything to Tim, as he has dirt on all of the members, and if he is killed, it will be released to the entire world, and Tim has found a way to control quite a number of Talons.
And now that these two neglected young men have met, they are going to show the world just how dangerous they can be.
(Fun Fact: This prompt was inspired by either an official or fanmade artwork I seen somewhere where Tim isn't part of the Batfam and is saying how he wished Batman took him away from the Drakes to a man he was about to pull the teeth out of their mouth with pliers)

Marvel being iconic
Just a thought of where Marvels main brand is being the most girly pop hero in the jl.
Like all the JL are iconic and they have their fair share of fanmade edits, but Marvels are just elite. He is the IT girl, the one who will regularly do themed costume changes on random intervals, he calls it as he sees it and is very ACAB.
Examples of clips is when he brought a fidget spinner to a …
Or the fact he uses squiggly glitter pens every time people ask him to write things down
Or when during a UN conference, he was just side eyeing Adam the whole time. Bro is not subtle.
Or the fact that he literally dwarfs over the Justice League (not including Big Barta).
In any case, he’s litteraly a social media icon. And because of that, Batman gave him access of twitter. He becomes more popular. If you want to see how it goes, see this series: https://archiveofourown.org/series/3296761
I love it so much, I reread it all the time.
Bonus:
Here’s one of the clips of Cap that made him viral. It’s of that time he found the suicide squad beating up the Joker.
SQ: …
Joker, beat up: …
Marvel, the only hero on scene: …
Marvel: oh no! An injured civilian
Riddler, who just wanted to go to Fawcette to riddle with some trolls: …
Riddler, mildly injured: … oh?.. Oh! .. OH THE PAIIIIIN
Police officer on scene: uh Captain… that’s the riddler
Marvel: Nuh uh, the Riddler has a green hat with a question mark and a cane. This fine gentleman is simply in a Green suit.
Harley Quinn, chocking the Joker: he’s a poor injured civilian
Riddler: yeah, I’m a poor injured civilian
Marvel, scoops riddler: up up and away
Police officer:
Reporter on scene:
SQ, still beating up the Joker:
Bonus 2:
Red Hood, somewhere: Something just happened
Oracle, already finding the source: oh tonight’s movie night is going to be amazing.
Signal: I’ll get the popcorn.
#billy batson#shazam#dc captain marvel#dc#suicide squad#random police officer#random reporter#they are just done#they are both from out of town#this is just another regular day in Fawcette city#quite a tame day the locals say#jl thinks Marvel is about to get the scolding of his life#he doesn’t#Batman gives him a personalised gift basket

My Conspiracy Theory about Natlan's Pale Characters
I started playing Genshin Impact around the 3.7 update, right after the Interdarshan Championship. While I wasn't around during the initial spark of outrage against Sumeru due to the characters' overall lack of melanin, I eventually learned a lot about Sumeru's cultural inspirations through the SWANA and South Asian creators in the fandom. I think it's beautiful how we learn about each other's cultures through Genshin, and I believe the designers at Hoyoverse do lots of research to facilitate these conversations. This is why I think it's a shame that Natlan, which features rich Indigenous cultures in the Americas, Africa, and Pacific Islands, features primarily pale characters AGAIN.
While it's possible that through the art, story, and fashion of Natlan we will once again learn about the diverse cultures of Indigenous Americas, West Africa, and the Pacific Islands, I don't think it's enough. Considering a lot of these cultures take pride in their skin color and bodies through tattoos, body paint, and other markings/piercings, Hoyoverse is doing a disservice to today's Latin American, African, and Pacific islander fan base by making the majority of Natlan characters pale. To insensitively cherry-pick what traits of each culture to represent and what to discard is the definition of cultural appropriation and racism, which is such a shame because of how many discussions about culture that Genshin has started since 2020. As a Chinese American player, I'm especially disappointed that the company who educated so many people about my culture is failing my brown and Black friends to such a spectacular degree.
Many people have come up with excuses such as it's just skin, it's just a game, Hoyoverse is a Chinese company so what do you expect, Latin America also has white people, etc. I won't bother debunking these myths because there are plenty of people doing this labor already, but what I do want to bring people's attention to is the fact that many Natlan characters were most likely designed with darker skin in mind. Through fanmade recolorings (here's an example), I noticed that Mualani and Kachina's tan lines and skin details look more pronounced with darker skin, while Xilonen looks more mature and Kinich looks more brooding. Having studied studio art during undergrad, I cannot unsee these intentional artistic decisions and cannot shake the possibility that the researchers and character designers of Hoyoverse were forced by higherups to whitewash everyone at the very last minute. If this is true, I hope Hoyoverse will find some way to reverse their decision or turn a new leaf in the future. Considering many other Chinese games like Reverse: 1999 and Dislyte already have diverse representation and melanated characters, Hoyoverse should find no problem following their lead.
As of right now (i.e. 4.8 update), Genshin players from all over the world are expressing their dissatisfaction with Hoyoverse through boycotts, review bombing, and posting on social media. The Chinese fanbase - Hoyoverse's primary audience - is especially vocal and organized about their efforts, which means if Hoyoverse doesn't notice now, they will notice soon. Despite how much we like using Genshin as an escape from real life, it's important to recognize how insidious the consequences of erasing melanated characters can be. Anti-Blackness and colorism harm people on the daily, which is why we must speak up when a company as big and influential as Hoyoverse is doing the harming.
Thanks for reading! Here are some related threads from X, formally known as Twitter:
Petition to "Stop Cultural Appropriation and Whitewashing in MiHoYo Games"
Valeria Rodriguez, i.e. Surcrose's English VA's thoughts on Natlan
Natlan Characters Look Better with a Dark Skintone
Kaveh rerunning in 4.8 is a ploy for WHAT!?!?!?

My Space Marine Chapter homebrew/fanmade Template/Table/Data Sheet
Here's my own version for a homebrew/fanmade Space Marine Chapter template/table.

Name: Nickname(s): Founding: Founding Chapter/Sucessor of: Descendant(s)/Sucessor Chapter(s): Battle Cry/Warcry: Chapter Master: Primarch: Homeworld: Fortress-Monastery: Specialty: Stength, Size, & Numbers: Allegiance: Colour(s):

You could also use it in conjuration with the Space Marine Chapter Creation Tables, if you want to of course.

Raven pls help a fellow out🙏 Do you know any website that sells cheap but good enough twst merch? I can't find any decent ones that aren't just pins:(
Wow, Mr. Fellow Honest himself is coming to me asking for help?/j
I don't normally give this kind of advice, but I figured I might as well since it's the holiday season and maybe people are looking for Twst merch to gift to themselves or to others. I included pros and cons along with each suggestion. Whether you decide to look into that particular method or not is up to you!
(Note that most of the time these are second-hand options, which will usually be cheaper than buying directly from Twst and/or collaborating companies at retail price.)
Book-Off
Pros: (generally) cheaper than other locations that import anime and manga goods, easy to find pins/badges and plushies here Cons: because the items are often unsold merch... quality may vary (check item before you buy), may not be able to find merch of your desired character, physical store locations are not organized by series so you'll probably have to spend a long time digging for what you want
Mercari
Pros: more variety of merch avaliable (including rarer stuff), can haggle the price and speak with individual sellers to negotiate or bundle goods Cons: may need to pay for delivery + other additional fees, price of item may be more expensive depending on the rarity, some items may not be brand new (check listing description; it will generally indicate the condition), item may be shipping from other countries so DOUBLE CHECK where it is shipping from before committing to the purchase or you'll be slapped with an expensive shipping fee to pay
Suruga-ya
Pros: excellent variety of merch, merch is often listed in yen so the price tends to be cheap, shipping is relatively fast (it doesn't take like A Month to get to you), quality is generally good Cons: shipping can be very expensive (unless you catch the site during a period in which they offer free shipping and/or do a group order to split the shipping costs with others)
fan artists!!
(Totally biased opinion, I recommend them the most 🥰)
Pros: you get to have a more unique piece of merch that's made from another fan's passion and love for Twst, you support a small independent creator
Cons: may not be financially feasible in some cases (for example, fanmade plushies may be more expensive than the mass produced official nuis are), fan artists are limited in the types of merch they can create if they don't have the means for bigger projects (like apparel, bags, etc.), you have to do your own research on who sells Twst fan merch (there is no centralized list or platform where all Twst fan merch sellers congregate)
Hope this helps, and best of luck with the merch hunt~
